"Close your eyes and open your mouth". Under normal circumstances, these words pertain to some type of delicious food item. When used by the ingenious pre-planning mindset of a 4 year old boy, the result is a slimy worm in your mouth. That is exactly what Terrance got. Myself and 3 others spent the past weekend watching the kiddos at a leadership retreat for Antioch Community Church Norman. Our weekend was filled with many similar stories, like in the picture above (Terrance, myself, and half the kids) riding Shamu the Whale minutes before it tipped over throwing the kids screaming and crying hysterically in the water. Someone really should have explained to them beforehand that you let go of the whale when it's tipping over....Having moved to Norman the day before the retreat, and constantly cleaning our house and applying for jobs after returning, I can honestly say that I hit the ground running. However, from the moment I arrived, I've been surrounded by members of Antioch, and consequently, a deep peace has surrounded my heart. There is an overwhelming sense of community, happiness, and passion for Jesus that cannot help but be poured out on others. I truly feel at home here and blessed to be a part of the Bride of Christ.
